Pennsylvania – Showers are already spreading across the Pittsburgh area this afternoon, and conditions are expected to worsen as thunderstorms begin to develop later in the day. Wet pavement and darkening skies are early signs of a more active pattern taking hold.
According to the National Weather Service, rain chances sit near 60 percent today with thunderstorms possible after 5 p.m., along with wind gusts up to 30 mph. While rainfall amounts may stay light in some spots, heavier downpours are possible where storms develop.
Across Pittsburgh, including Allegheny County and nearby suburbs, travel impacts will increase through the afternoon and evening. Roads like I-376, I-79, and the Parkway East may see slick conditions, reduced visibility, and brief slowdowns during heavier rain.
By Tuesday, the pattern becomes more active. Showers and thunderstorms are expected again, especially during the afternoon and evening hours. Some storms could bring gusty winds, and repeated rainfall may lead to ponding on roads and in low-lying areas.
Midweek continues the unsettled trend. Showers remain likely Wednesday, with additional chances into Thursday. Temperatures stay warm, climbing into the low-to-mid 80s before easing slightly by Friday as skies begin to clear.
